The best features that Check Point SandBlast Network offers include detecting zero-day attacks, which is most useful for maintaining safety. The Check Point sandbox provides comprehensive security by offering sandboxing capabilities, running files and traffic in a virtual and isolated environment, ensuring minimal disruption. Files being downloaded are delivered as clean copies to users, while the original files are kept for analysis. Additionally, the solution integrates with other Check Point technologies such as SmartEvent, threat cloud, and Harmony Email and Office, providing real-time protection with threat extraction that delivers sanitized files instantly. Another feature is the deep level inspection using CPU-level emulation, going beyond traditional sandboxing by analyzing how malware interacts with systems at the hardware level. The real-time protection and threat extraction features have helped my team by allowing us to find and detect zero-day attacks through isolated environment scans. Threat extraction is particularly beneficial because if a file is sent for a scan, it typically takes time to provide a verdict. Check Point SandBlast Network cleans the file and removes any embedded macros in attachments, sending a clean file to the user. This reduces disruption in file delivery, and the time delay is minimal. The main focus also lies in scanning files for malicious behavior and zero-day or ransomware attacks. This helps the organization receive files promptly, minimizing potential security risks while ensuring timely access to information. Additionally, the real-time threat intelligence that Check Point connects to the threat cloud for global threat data updates helps us stay ahead of attacks.
